INGREDIENT PREPARATION Before operating • • • If the juicer is jammed or if the drum lid does not open, press the REVERSE button and hold until it becomes dislodged. Repeat REVERSE-OFF-ON as needed. Continue operating the juicer until all the ingredients in the juicing bowl are extracted. The drum lid may not open easily if there is a lot of pulp remaining in the juicer. Every ingredient yields different amounts of juice.
• If there is an excessive amount of foam, use a mesh strainer to separate it from the juice. • When an ingredient is being masticated by the juicing screw, it may splash juice through the food chute. Use the pusher to block out the juice splash when juicing. How to use the smart cap • Juicing with the smart cap closed allows mixed juice creations with different fruits, vegetable and liquids.
Hard fruits and vegetables (carrots, potato, beets and spinach) 15cm 1-2cm 2cm Hard, fruits and vegetables may put excess strain onto the motor and cause it to stall. Soak in cold water prior to juicing and cut to appropriate sizes. To increase the juice yield, juice fruits and vegetables with high water content. Preparation tips • Slice the ingredients 1cmthick or cut 1cmwide and 3-10cmlong. • Soak hard ingredients like carrots and ginger in cold water prior to juicing.
Extraction tips • Insert 3-5 grapes at a time, depending on size, while monitoring the extraction result. • Thaw frozen ingredients like pomegranate and raspberry, then add about 1 tablespoon each at a time. • Frozen ingredients usually lose significant amount of fluid after thawing. When juicing, you can mix milk or yogurt to balance the fluid lost.
• Roll leaves into spiral when inserting into the juicer. • Insert the leafy part of the ingredients first, then alternate between leafy parts and stem. • For ingredients like wheatgrass, grab a handful and insert a bundle. Caution The fibres from tough ingredients like celery can wrap around the juicing screw and affect juicer’s performance. Cut the stems that are thick and tough to 10cmlong or less. • Foam build up from juicing fibrous ingredients. Use strainer to remove the foam before serving.
SORBET STRAINER Before use, ensure the seal ring is in place. To assemble the topset, place the juicing screw and the sorbet strainer in the juicing bowl and close the lid. 1. Insert the sorbet strainer into the juicing bowl while aligning the red dots of the sorbet strainer and the juicing bowl. 2. Insert the juicing screw into the sorbet strainer in a twisting motion. 3. Place the lid onto the juicing bowl by aligning the red dot of the lid and the juicing bowl.
4. Place the assembled topset onto the base. topset Base Caution The sorbet strainer should only be used with frozen ingredients. Depending on the ingredient, allow the frozen items to thaw for 5 to 20 minutes before use. Slowly process a small quantity per batch. Note • Do not use ice or process ingredients containing vegetable or animal oil as they may cause the juicer to malfunction. • Remove hard seeds from the ingredients and peel the skin from the ingredients before juicing.
SMOOTHIE STRAINER To assemble the topset, place the juicing screw and the smoothie strainer in the juicing bowl and close the lid. 1. Insert the smoothie strainer into the juicing bowl while aligning the red dots of the smoothie strainer and the juicing bowl. 2. Twist the juicing screw into place on the smoothie strainer. 3. Place the lid onto the juicing bowl by aligning the red dots of the lid and the juicing bowl. Then rotate the lid clockwise until the lid is secured.
4. Place the assembled topset onto the base Topset Base Caution: When using frozen ingredients, ensure the frozen ingredients are thawed for about 5 to 20 minutes before use. The required period to thaw the ingredients will depend on how long the ingredients were in the freezer and the temperature it was kept in. When making smoothies, add milk or other liquid between ingredients. Check the consistency of the smoothie by looking through the juicing bowl and add more liquid as needed.
CLEANING & CARE Remove the juicing screw and strainer from the juicing bowl. Clean with the provided brush. Note • Immediately clean the juicer after each use. If remaining residue in the juicer dries up, it can make disassembling and clean-up difficult. The excess build-up can cause poor performance in future uses. • For easy disassembly, place the top-set in the sink and run the water through from the top of the top-set.
TROUBLESHOOTING No power to juicer Low juice yield Too much pulp in juice • Ensure power cord is properly plugged in. • Confirm the drum lid and the juicing bowl is properly assembled. • Ensure that the topset and base of the juicer have been assembled correctly, following the step by step instructions in the Assembly portion of this guide. • Juicer will not operate if parts are not assembled properly.
Drum lid will not close • Ensure the juicing screw is pushed all the way into the strainer for the drum lid to close properly. • Check if the parts are assembled correctly. Try reassembling the parts and listen to odd noises. • Do not start the juicer unless there are ingredients and/or liquid in it. • Operating the juicer without ingredients can cause damage to the screw. • If the juicer is operated without ingredients or liquid, the noise level can increase and can lead to damage of the juicer.
• Ensure the power cord is plugged in correctly. • Ensure that the juicer has been assembled correctly, following the step by step instructions in the Assembly portion of this guide. • If too many ingredients are inserted at one time, this can cause the juicer to stop. • If the juicer stops due to the overload protection, let the juicer cool for 30 minutes to 2 hours before juicing again. • If there are hard seeds within the ingredients, remove them before juicing. Hard seeds can damage the juicer.
• After juicing, if the juicer is not cleaned right away, the remaining pulp inside the topset can dry up which can make disassembling and cleaning hard. This can also affect the juicer’s performance and colour. • Ingredients that are rich in carotenoids such as carrots and spinach may dye plastic parts. • When the parts are dyed with carotenoids, rub vegetable oil into the dyed areas and use mild detergent to clean. • Vegetable oil should only be used during clean-up for parts that are discoloured.
